They are the last two #1 overall NFL draft picks to make the Pro Bowl as rookies.

When Jason Peters, LT for the Tatonka Bills got hurt, Long replaced him becoming the first #1 since Rogers in 1981 to make it as a rookie. I have decided we might as well get used to calling the Bills something other than Buffalo and "tatonka" means Buffalo in Sioux (see Dances with Wolves) and sounds a little like Toronto, which is where the Bills are probably going. Consider it our methadone as we make the change.

BTW, Long and Rogers are two of only four all-time #1s to make it as rookies since the 1970 merger. Other Dolphins to make it as rookies: Daniel Constantine Marino, Jr. and Richmond Webb.

About Me

I am a bold figure, often seen powerwalking and crushing cans. I have been known to rock a microphone. I translate American Idol for enemy noncombatants. I routinely manage to infurriate DC Metro service personel. I woo women with my impressive name-dropping and my astounding ability at butterbean shelling.
When I'm bored, I take a case of wine over to my friend's house and get introduced to all the Puerto Rican girls who are dying to meet me.
I am a logical negativist who has propounded a set of laws that the world ignores, to its detriment.
I am an expert in Post-Civil War Reconstruction, a veteran of Greenwood Baseball, and an outlaw in Murrell's Inlet.
I once built a perpetual motion machine with Steve Roberts. I make homemade Sprite. I have been and remain on double secret probation.
The Russians call me "Vilnius Nastavic," because I require but one ping. I used to handle black ops for the United States Postal Service. I helped open Dog One and have doctored flight logs for rising 5-star colonels.
I have driven from Texarkana to Atlanta in 28 hours. I had no fatalities during my brief career on the safety patrol.
